The Land Development Agency is seeking feedback on proposals for housing in Kinsealy on part of the former Teagasc lands.
My initial concern, which I have already fed back to the LDA, is that the project must provide safe access from the existing housing to the Educate Together National School and on to St. Nicholas of Myra National School. This needs to be in the final layout when the development is completed, and logically would be provided from the greenway proposed to be built in phase 1 of the LDA’s plans. But access must also be provided during the construction period, by providing a route through the land reserved for the second phase while the first phase is under construction.
In general the proposal has a very welcome emphasis on prioritising walking and cycling; I will be studying it in more detail to consider all of the aspects in order to make a more detailed submission.
